THE NEW YORK TIMES recommends Amber Light Speech Timer saying:

"This app works like the traffic light system that some public speaking venues use, showing a green display when you are in the middle of a talk, amber as you near the end and red at the close. This is not as simple as it sounds, and Amber Light gets it right with clear controls and custom timers. People can choose the different color alert times and the option to have the phone buzz if they prefer a physical rather than a visual alert."

With Amber Light Speech Timer you can use the traffic light system to time your speeches and activities.

Green means you’ve reached the minimum time for your speech
Amber means your coming towards the end of your allotted time
Red means your time is up and you need to draw to a close

Use Amber Light Speech Timer for the following:
- Use it to practice that all important speech for your public speaking, debating or Toastmasters club
- Use it if you are the timekeeper at a public speaking club to log the times of speeches
- You can use Amber Light Speech Timer on an iPad as a portable alternative to a bulky and expensive traffic light systems that use light bulbs

Features:
- When a timer is running you can choose to only see the colour transitions, or you can keep the time on screen too
- When a timer is running the screen does not lock ensuring that you can always see the screen when you need to
- Timers can transition silently, but you can also enable sound effects (and vibrate on devices that support it)
- You can change timers while the clock is ticking without needing to reset
- You can add as many custom timers as you like
- All timers are logged and can be labelled for future reference, either while the timer is running or afterwards
- The timer log has a feature called dividers which allow you to divide up logs and make them more readable
- A manual timer is available which enables you to advance the lights manually with a swipe. This means Amber Light Speech Timer can conform with Toastmaster competition rules, but also makes it adaptable to many other uses
